I need to tell you why I been unhappy
|
It's been too long on my mind
|
Oh - Oh
|
Gotta admit you were there when I needed
|
Still there's something I gotta find
|
Oh - my darlin'
|
I been thinkin''bout givin' you up
|
Been thinkin' 'bout changin' my luck
|
Givin' you up - there's nothin' that you've done
|
Givin' you up I've outgrown your love
|
Givin' you up I need some time on my own
|
In order to find me I - I'm givin' you up
|
|
You might hear 'bout me seeing somebody
|
Though it's not love I'm trying to find
|
Oh - Oh
|
It could be the freedom without you I'm needing
|
You took me for granted I found
|
Oh - my darlin'
|
I been thinkin''bout givin' you up
|
And maybe I wanted too much
|
|
If you believe all that you hear
|
You won't believe that love lasts thru the tears
|
Try to remember the good times
|
I'll have the memories
|
And I gotta admit you were there when I needed
|
|
Oh - my darlin'
|
I been thinkin''bout givin' you up
|
I been thinkin' 'bout changin' my luck
|
|
Givin' you up
|
Givin' you up
|
|
